View of fishing village in Tanjung Tokong, Penang, Malaysia

Tanjung Tokong

Tanjung Tokong offers a peaceful coastal retreat where traditional Malaysian life meets modern waterfront living. The iconic Floating Mosque stands proudly along the shoreline. Fishing boats dot the Straits of Malacca while the dramatic Penang Bridge frames the horizon. This multicultural neighborhood balances Chinese temples and Malay villages. Stroll along landscaped coastal walkways as the sea breeze carries aromas from seafood restaurants. Sunrise prayers echo across the water each morning. Local kopitiams serve authentic breakfast fare alongside upscale waterfront dining options. The Ibox Museum of Glass provides cultural interest amid this authentic slice of Penang life.

If you happen to travel to Penang Island, Malaysia, try this Nasi 7 Benua. Literally translated to English would be 7 Continents Rice. The 7 continents are actually representing the 7 types of rice served on a plate. These 7 types of rice are Nasi putih, nasi tomato, nasi lamuni, nasi lemak pandan, nasi hujan panas, nasi kacang and nasi minyak. For the dishes to be eaten with the rice, feel free to choose from the many selections of chicken, beef, seafood and veggies. This is really good, you should try if you happen to be in Penang!
